    Good call, CST80.

    Hughie has the lung capacity of a 75 year old smoker. It might be due to his size but at 24 you shouldn't be gassed after the third round. He could have simply outworked Povetkin in the later rounds but Fury was just as tired as the 40 year old. Now who does Povetkin fight next? Usyk maybe?

    Hughie Fury fights are card killers. They just drain the audience. Povetkin wasn't any better. He's nowhere near what he was.

    Andre Ward has turned into a Lomachenko hater. He was full of praise for him at one point, then all of a sudden he made noise about Lomachenko's skin colour and bias, since then he's taken every opportunity to **** on him and tell everyone that Crawford is pound for pound. At the fighter meeting he was there to ask Campbell questions, at Lomachenko's meeting Ward had suddenly vanished.
    I don't know if it's the race issue or the fact that Loma is far more widely regarded and acclaimed than Ward was when he was at his best.

    He was better than he was in the Parker fight.

    However the amount of holding and the negative approach was difficult to watch and typical of him.

    Fell asleep and woke up in time for the decision lol.Hugie Fury is beyond awful,comes out like he's shadow boxing instead trying to hurt his opposition.Don't wanna **** on the man but I did say that this was stupid taking on Povetkin.........may have to retire as I don't see him beating anyone.

    lots of unnecesary movent, plus he was on his nerves, it could be seen at first glance. Being nervous in the fight and moving for nothing drains your stamina like crazy.

    Because actually he was doing well in the clinches to exhaust povetkin. At least he did that correctly. But well... that's life.

    The whole card has been a bit of a dud and the crowd mild throughout.

    Povetkin got the decision. He should walk away. He can't fight David Price every time out.
